"addr" is a pointer so it's either 4 or 8 bytes, but actually we want
to compare 6 bytes (ETH_ALEN).

As network stack already provides helper function
is_zero_ether_addr() we use that instead of memcmp

Generally I would frown on patch thievery but since the maintainer
asked you to then it's fine.

Oops.  Doesn't compile.  I see you sent a v3 already.
